The Rose Princeses

Melanie and Briony

Our part of the fairy tale starts with Mum, The ROSE QUEEN. We grew up with gardens displaying rich, vibrant coloured, strongly fragranced rose blooms. Our home was full of stunning roses and powerful scents so it’s no surprise that we have become part of the ‘tale’.As the Rose Queen travelled the world attending rose conferences and meeting rose breeders, she’d return telling tales of introductions to new and unique rose varieties. Roses she’d never seen before! One rose in particular caught her eye - a new variety, the bush height small, the flowers large, bright and fragrant.The Rose Queen became passionate about this rose and was determined to introduce it to the New Zealand market so that all could enjoy. She called it the “BambinaRose®.​Mum’s vision to create a new market for the BambinaRose®​ was infectious so… we decided to take the leap of faith with her. And so the fairytale continues with Amore Roses.
